Number 11, 1952 (painting)
''Number 11, 1952'', also known as ''Blue Poles'', is an abstract expressionist painting and one of the most famous works by American artist Jackson Pollock. It was purchased amid controversy by the National Gallery of Australia in 1973 and today remains one of the gallery's major paintings.
==Title==
At the time of the painting's creation, Pollock preferred not to assign names to his works, but rather numbers; hence, the original title of the painting was simply "Number 11"' or "No. 11" for the year 1952. In 1954, the new title ''Blue Poles'' was first seen at an exhibition at the Sidney Janis Gallery and reportedly originated from Pollock himself.〔Lloyd, Michael and Michael Desmond. (''Blue Poles'' ). National Gallery of Australia. Excerpted from ''European and American Paintings and Sculptures 1870–1970 in the Australian National Gallery'' by M. Lloyd and M. Desmond, 1992.〕
According to art historian Dennis Phillips, the specific rather than ambiguous title "limits our field of comprehension and does the painting a singular disservice. Because we look for the poles and miss much of the rest, the name is simply too distracting."〔
